http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15406 error-page responses are sent with wrong status code! Summary: error-page responses are sent with wrong status code! Product: Tomcat 4 Version: 4.1.12 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I recently had occasion to use the error-page facility of web.xml with tomcat 4.x for the first time. To my surprise, tomcat sends a 200 status code with the content, regardless of what the original error code is! As far as I can tell, this is totally incorrect behavior. I regard it as a "major" bug because it's essentially "censoring" the http conversation between client and webapp, and makes it impossible for search engines, et. al., to distinguish between good and bad urls. I have verified this behavior in jakarta-tomcat-4.0.6 and 4.1.12 in standalone mode. I have not tested it with any of the connectors. I am happy to help contribute a patch if the developers agree this is a bug but have not the time to fix it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
